NovelEnglishChapter 0399 Nina As we walked back to town, it seemed that what Luke and the others had said was true after all. All of the rogues had left when their leader howled, and thankfully, not much damage was done. People seemed shaken up, but other than that, no one was severely injured.
*If anyone needs medical attention, cto the infirmary," I said, addressing the group of townspeople that still remained at our original meeting point. "I'll help anyone who needs it. The town is safe for now, though, so you can rest easy tonight." "What if they cback?" a middle-aged woman asked, her voice shaking slightly as she held on tightly to her husband's arm. "They could cback at any point." "If they cback, we'll be prepared," Enzo said, stepping in. "The hockey team will be patrolling the perimeter of the town, and we have people posted in various places to watch for any returning rogues. For now, it looks like they ran off to regroup, and they probably won't be back anytsoon." Unfortunately, however, it seemed as though the townspeople didn't believe Enzo. I didn't blthem, either. The rogues were unpredictable, and whatever tactics they used earlier to sneak past our defenses were unlike anything that I had seen before. It was true that they could cback at any point, and with so few werewolves in town to fight, we wouldn't stand much of a chance if the rogues returned in greater numbers.
As we walked back to campus, I was silent. I kept trying to think of ways that we could prepare, because the rogues were bound to cback. And until we figured out how to stop both the Luna and the Crescents entirely, which very well could take a long time, we needed to know that our town was being protected in the meantime. At the end of the day, we simply didn't have enough werewolves to defend ourselves.
However, I suddenly had an idea. As we were crossing the athletic field to head back to the infirmary, I suddenly stopped and whirled around to face Enzo and the others.
"I have an idea," I said. "It's crazy, but it would help us stand a chance against the Luna and the Crescents." "What is it?" Enzo asked, cocking his head slightly and causing his curly hair to fall into his eyes a bit.
"I have the power of Claiming, remember?" I said, thinking back on the night that I turned the entire hockey team into werewolves. Although I had passed out afterwards from the stress of it all, it was a successful endeavor. And now that I had shifted and had my wolf's full power coursing through me, I was confident that my power of Claiming would be even more potent.
Enzo, immediately seeing what I was getting at, shook his head and began walking again. "No." My eyes widened slightly, and I jogged after him a bit. The rest of the group followed, although they were silent at first. "No?" I asked, grabbing Enzo's arm. "That's it? That's all you have to say?" "Yes," Enzo replied. "That's all I have to say. No."
